    Yeah they are threatening a strike here too. Unfortunately for them, no one cares about cabin crews here and their arrogant asses.

    Here things are just escalating. Now they get support from maintenance and baggage crew, planes will not be fuelled in Helsinki-Vantaa airport etc. So far Finnair has had to cancel over 1000 flights. Within one year there has been also strikes by the pilots and ground/tech/baggage crews... If the Finnair goes down, and these people end up unemployed I'm not gonna be sorry for them.

    How many Airlines does your country have? We have about 4 that would love to see the employees of the Flag carrier on strike, so as they can get more passengers. They want and increase in pay and a retirement age from 40 to 65 for stewardess.' Which is nuts. I dont want grandma serving me coffee.

    Finnair is the biggest one. Others have also international flights but Finnair's the leader. Demand list includes, eg. extra 12hours (24h+12h extra) free after long distance flights, increase in pay and all that. Finnair did already try to settle the thing but these dumbsh1ts just turner the off down. Now Finnair is looking for hiring non-Finnish workforce for cabin crews. Go for it, I say.

    Haha, I'll add Finnish Filipino ancestry to our future football line up then. We already have an Icelandic Filipino in the current line up.

    I hate it when someone calls me by my pet name. Don't ask what my nick name is because it will ruin my day. LOL

    I've never been called by my most obvious nickname. (Australians have a long and noble tradition of putting a 'y' on the end some surnames (Jonesy, Smithy, Willsy etc), especially my particular one, and calling you that. But not me )

    Could call it something I'm currently hating.

    Ridiculously flukey hits on Close Combat:A Bridge Too Far. When they happen more than once...

    I have numbers superiority. I have Bren and Vickers teams pinning all major enemy threats (MG42 teams etc) and I hit a building containing a Panzershrek team (2 men) with 2 Rifle teams (5 men each) from different direction. I have two Bren teams pinning this one unit while my guys move in.

    One of the Panzershrek guys hurls a grenade out the window, kills three and incapacitates two from one rifle team. **** happens, thats why I sent two teams. Then he hurls another and kills three riflemen from the other team and beats the other two to death with his Panzershrek. At no point did the team leader with the sten think to perforate them both...Whole attack breaks down, whole battle bogs down into firing at each other across a street.

    Rage quit...
